Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver (WR) Breshad Perriman is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup to target as a free agent addition for Week 15 of the 2019 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: There is no way you are in the semifinals of your fantasy league and you don’t want to have Breshad Perriman in your team. Oh, and at the end of this week’s games, he’s owned in… almost no leagues! Some things I’ll never understand… Perriman won Tampa Bay this weekend’s game against Indiana by scoring its winning touchdown, which he did in just three catches (five targets) for 70 yards. That’s what I call efficiency. All in all, 16 fantasy points and another week in double-digits for him.
Perriman had only had another 10-plus points game so far this season until his breakout 87-yard outing in Week 13. It happened in Week 9 against Seattle when he caught four passes for 42 yards and a touchdown. Other than that he had navigated the 3-to-5 fantasy points per game waters. But his last two games have now gone for 13.7 and 16 fantasy points and it looks like that will keep being his average going forward.
Mike Evans scored a touchdown this past Sunday but suffered a hamstring injury that will more than likely make him lose time. That means two things: one, that defenses will key on Chris Godwin from now on; and two, that Perriman will keep seeing high-volume passes thrown his way while playing after a booming quarterback in Jameis Winston.
Perriman and the Bucs have one of the easiest fantasy-playoffs schedules, facing Detroit (24th against WRs) and the Texans (19th) next. Both matchups are great and Perriman is the no. 2 receiver of Tampa Bay’s attack now with Evans down. I’d consider adding and playing him even in sallow leagues, so consider him a no-brainer addition and play in 14+ and deeper ones. Lock addition and lock play ROS, definitely.
